What are the signs of wood rot?
Wood rot is a type of decay typically caused by fungal growth in damp wood. While there are usually two types of wood rot – wet rot and dry rot – this has been misleading since all rotted wood is caused by moisture. This means dry rot has also been caused by moisture at one time or another.
You should see the following signs why repairing or replacing affected wood is urgent:
- Paint discoloration.
- Bubbling and cracking paint.
- Strong and musty odor – the sign of mold and mildew.
- Recurrence of mold and mildew (which can lead to more rot)
- It may be a deeper issue than just wood rot – it could be a sign of more serious structural problems, which could compromise your commercial building’s stability and safety.
- Health and safety hazard to employees, customers, and visitors.
